Mayor Nickels was the guest parachuter at Moosefest, a fundraising music festival benefiting Childrens Hospital. Here are three pictures documenting it. The approach, the missed landing, and the Mayor with the ambulance in the background that was needed to assist the gentleman who broke his leg in the crash while making sure children weren’t hurt by Nickels and his tandem. Kudos to the injured gentleman, and we wish him a speedy recovery.
In defense of the Mayor he is smiling per my request, not realizing he was in a photo with the ambulance.
…for citing the content of this website as your sole reason for me to not be approved as a Mayoral appointment.
170 new hits by 12:30pm. That is a MattKadow.com record.

446 Hits on the day! All because the content of this website allegedly makes me too dangerous to serve on the “stop sign committee.”
Tried adding these photos live on Friday night…having issues with the WordPress iPhone app. I blame it on the City of Manitowoc’s less than mediocre public wi-fi.
But, here it is in video and photographic form. Manitowoc Mayor Justin Nickels performing “Spiders in My Pocket” with the Spark Plugs at this year’s annual Metrojam music festival in Downtown Manitowoc. Unfortunately I do not have any photographic evidence of the handful of Tween girls with their “I <3 Justin” sign, or them asking him to autograph it.
Will be live blogging (w/ photos) the USA v. Honduras men’s world cup qualifier from Soldier Field. 7:00pm CST.
Showing my support for the Red Wings with unconventional playoff beard (the rarely seen, and often awed, Van Buren).
Big game seven tonight versus the Ducks of Anaheim. Epic. Just like my beard.
Here’s my updated bracket including tonight’s results:
After going 4-for-4 on the opening night of the NCAA Men’s Hockey tournament, the hockey gods were less kind to me today. Bemidji State pulled of the tourney’s biggest upset taking it Notre Dame 5-1.
The Miami (OH) Redhawks are my last hope to to come out ahead in my bracket, as they have secured their first ever Frozen Four appearance.
The first day of spring was here last week. But this weekend is when spring really gets underway and starts to heat up bringing an end to the long, dark, cold northern winters. That’s right, it is College Hockey Tournament time. The ponds are no longer a battlefield, as the ice melted to unsafe levels a couple weeks ago, so we huddle around our T.V.’s for the final culmination of that game we love so dear.
The NCAA D-I Men’s Ice Hockey Tournament opened play last night with four games. I’m batting a thousand in my picks which include three upsets, which I didn’t really see as upset picks when I made them. While I wasn’t surprised with the Air Force win, I was surprised that Michigan was able to outshoot them by 30 shots! Say it with me, “Holy Moly! What a Goalie!”
Anyhow, here’s my bracket, I’ll keep it updated daily as the tournament progresses. Good luck to fellow WCHA-ers North Dakota, today, as I picked your sorry gold-bricking asses to go to the championship game.
